Analysis and Prediction Land Use Pattern in Awissawella Area Using Sattelite Image

Unplanned high urbanization has become a major problem in the world. Alternative areas for population migration are suggested and discovered by the countries at the moment. For population migration and potential development in those alternative areas, policymakers should introduce guidelines and regulations. Land use/land cover change analysis studies are effective and successful methods to determine regulations and guidelines. In those kinds of studies, remote sensing and GIS are mainly used. Landsat satellite images were used as digital images and GIS was used to digitizing and analyzing purposes. CA-Markov models were used to predicting purposes. This kind of study has not been conducted yet for the Awissawella area which has been suggested as an alternative to highly urbanized cities like Colombo and Kandy. So, this research will be helped to make regulations.. View more»
